Question: At one time, while giving lectures, you mentioned the New Age movement but stopped doing it. Why?
Answer: I do not remember why I touched upon that movement. I have always taught pure Kabbalah based on the sources of Baal HaSulam. All the years of my life after the age of 30, I have been doing only this and do not hide that I do not know all the other sources well.
I do not engage in comparative analysis between Kabbalah and, say, Sufism, religions, or philosophies. Not at all! I am a specialist specifically in the field of Kabbalistic methodology.
And every time, I am convinced of how pure, strict, and sharply directed toward the goal of creation it is and how much it is the goal of our evolution. That is why I have no desire to be engaged in anything else! I am not interested in any New Age! There is no need to talk about that at all.
I am not interested in anything other than a deep internal understanding of the upper world through the methodology of Kabbalah because I see how it works.
It takes a person many years to study it, but it fully, tangibly introduces him to a new world that reveals itself to him in his attainment, sensation, in all his states, past, and future. He understands, feels, and comprehends everything within himself!
When you see this, you recognize it when it forms in you and no longer have any questions about other methods that people have invented. You remain only with this.
